The Drunken Horse pizza was one of the best pizzas I've ever had.My wife's focaccia and salad came out about 30 minutes before my pizza, maybe coordinate that better.The birch beer soda didn't have much birch to it.Would visit again, just for the pizza!

I’ve had a lot of pizza but this is among the best! You can really taste the freshness of the ingredients and it makes all the difference. Staff was very friendly and the quality superb.

Went here after work last Thursday with my kids. The place has a nice vibe. Pretty spacious and outdoor seating. The decorations are cool and fun to look at. The guy that took our order was nice and so were the servers. We had 3 Classic Margherita pizzas. The cheese was soooooo melty and delicious. My kids enjoyed 2 orders of Arancini, which they enjoyed. They give you scissors to cut the pizza. ? We will definitely go there again.
Kid-friendliness: Definitely kid friendly. There were families dining there.

The pizza was delicious. I do wish the crust on the bottom was a little thicker, just a little lol we got the special with flavors that incorporated the change of season. We’re glad we stopped and will be back.

Food is extremely delicious and you can tell they use fresh ingredients. The place has indoor and outdoor seating, and a bar you can sit at as well. The service was amazing, and the staff is super friendly! Highly recommend if you're downtown!

The best pizza I've ever had. Perfectly crispy crust and just the right amount of sauce and toppings. Their vegan mozzarella doesn't taste like real mozzarella... it's better!!

The pizza is extremely salty. I personally don't love salty food so I was pretty disappointed as I've never had pizza that was especially salty before. For the price, I would go to other places nearby for a vegan pizza experience. The toppings are very limited, as is the amount of sauce they provide. I found it to be very crisp and crunchy as well so the combination of everything left me quite parched. I do appreciate that they have vegan options, it is just not for me.

I think it's great they make the vegan mozzarella in house, and everything is very hot and fresh. The pizza wasn't that flavorful and the oil they put on it is very odd. I think without the oil it would be a good snack. We ordered 4 pizzas and all 5 of didn't enjoy it to order again.
The first time I went here many years ago I was impressed with the in-house cashew cheese. The second time I went was a few months later and our pizza was greasy and just not quite as good. Today we went back and the food was quite “mid,” as the kids would say. The pizza was super oily, the crust was half burnt, and the vegan cheese had a slightly off-taste to it (my boyfriend thinks it tasted like coconut oil). I ordered the “garlic” focaccia and I’m not sure why it is even on the menu. It’s room temp bread with salt on top. I wouldn’t eat that if it was free at Olive Garden so I feel bamboozled having paid money for it.
Hands down the best Neapolitan style wood fired pizza in the triangle. I’ve had pizzas in Italy that weren’t this good. Love this place. Classic margherita with the high quality fresh mozzarella is the way to go!

Really enjoyed their pizza! The cheese is a cashew based cheese made in house, it reminds me of ricotta. They had 2 vegan options on the menu: the Barry white and the vegan margherita. You could also build your own.
We love Pompieri! The atmosphere is very unique, and the pizza is fantastic. I love the wood fire singed edges. Our 1 year old had a great time in the little kiddie corner with all the fire trucks and books, what a perfect idea to keep little ones busy. The girl behind the counter was super funny and kind, we felt very welcome. We will definitely be back here every time we travel through!
Kid-friendliness: The kiddie corner is the best thing ever. It kept our 1 year old busy while we finished eating.

We walked by this place prior to our visit and the smells drew us in, we decided to swing by the following weekend, we came right after they opened and it wasn't packed at all. Food came out so quick and it was absolutely delicious. Loved cutting the slices with scissors to my own personal sizes. We will definitely be back to try some of that gelato!

Located in the historic fire station. The old drop down fire pole is still there in the ceiling. I had the Pride Pie special for pride month. Money goes to surrport good causes. I was delighted to have some Birch Beer.

(gluten free pizza was TERRIBLE).We came here because of the gluten free pizza and it was really bad... The dough was not good, overcooked and burnt. To the point where it hurt the teeth to bite...
